FRIDAY. MAY 8, 1887.
Limiting Legislation.

The consultation OF the State says
that in calling q special session Of
the Legislature the Governor shall
specify the purposes for which it 81
convened; but the constitution does
not limit the Legislature to action
upon shese matters. He gives rsas
ons for calling together that body, In
order that the public and the Legis.
lature may justify him in 60 doing.
and ALEC to indicate that no one has
the right 10 convene that body sim
Ply On his own ipee dixi'.
The Legislature Is the supreme
authority. II makes the laws; the
Governor executes them, and the
judiciary may on occasion pass upon
their constitutions iiy. Tie powers
Of the Governor are limited the Leg
islature is supreme after the Constr
tuition. II would be simply folly,
now that the Legislature is in session
for the Governor to SEMI in another
message making a,ldenoa 10 his
call of two months ago. The Le2is-
lature is in session, and it may leg :
lsiate now upon any SUI ject j,
chooses and enact whatever il
pleases. Suppose pleuro paeumonia
should become epidemic through.

NOVELTIES.

Novelties in the shape of indurat-
ed fibre pals and lamp attachments
may be had at the Pacific Hardware
Co.'s store, Fort street. The pals
are manufactured of sycamore wood,
ground and made into liquid pulp;
then moulded into the exact shape
required, and while in this plastic
state subjected to heavy and equal
pressure on all sides; then dried,
smoothed and soaked in an indu-
rating composition, and lastly baked
in ovens. The result Is a neat,
strong seamless, odorless, unpaint-
ed and nnvarnished pail, which will
not shrink, swell, crack, absorb
moisture or increase in weight. Fur
Their it is not affected by hot water
or any ordinary acid, and retains no
odor. Again and lastly these pals
are always water tight and have no
hoops to drop off.
The lamp attachment is a NEST
simple, handy and serviceable little
instrument for heating purposes. 1t
is adjustable to any ordinary kero-
sene lamp, and will in a few minutes
without creating any smoke or
smell of oil, heat Or boil water, tea,
or coffee. 1t is an excellent article
for q sick chamber, to warm food OF
water at any hour of night, to heat
q small iron or melt pot of glue
in short its uses are ALMOST innumer'
able, and its value would be, In al
emergency, inestimable.
